Hi families! My name is Yessidaly, but I go by Yessy. I’m a devoted Christian from Nashville and I currently nanny a precious 9 month old baby boy! I’ve taught at a daycare to the sweetest class of 2-year-olds! I also serve in the kids’ ministry at my church and have been babysitting for friends and family for a little over 2.5 years. Kids will always have a special place in my heart. I would describe myself as nurturing, patient, and reliable, with experience caring for children of all ages. I love doing crafts, singing songs, and using music to create fun and engaging moments. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to help with light housework like tidying or dishes. As well as adjusting to an ongoing routine if needed. My goal is always to create a safe, joyful environment where children feel loved, cared for, and encouraged to grow.

I love being a babysitter, I have learned so much from working with children and I am so excited to get back into it. I have experience with all children ages 0-10. My responsibilities usually included prepping meals, doing small crafts and projects, providing transportation to and from school and any after school activities. Helping with after school and before bed routines. I offer household services as well, including cleaning, cooking, laundry, and type of keep up or organization and running small errands. I am happy to work with dogs and cats. I can feed, walk, and play. I can work with big dogs as well. I would just want more information on any other animals you have.

With a week-on/week-off 50/50 custody schedule, flexibility and reliability are incredibly important to our family — and Gabrielle has exceeded every expectation. She is punctual, dependable, and adaptable, seamlessly adjusting to our rotating schedule without ever missing a beat. Beyond her professionalism, what truly stands out is the genuine connection she’s built with my daughter. My child looks forward to seeing her, which speaks volumes about her warmth, kindness, and the trust she creates. Gabrielle goes above and beyond to make transitions smooth, keep communication clear, and ensure my daughter always feels safe and supported. If you’re looking for someone who is not only reliable but truly cares about the kids she helps care for, Gabrielle is exceptional.

Hi I’m Clara! A little bit about me-I'm a Nashville native currently working on a bachelor's degree of speech-language pathology at Murray State University.

Hendley $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hendley, and I am currently looking for opportunities in babysitting, house sitting, and dog sitting! I am a bubbly, creative, imaginative, hardworking, and a dependable person who genuinely loves helping others and making a positive difference in people’s lives. Growing up in a big family with three younger siblings has played a huge role in shaping who I am today and has given me a special appreciation for the importance of family, patience, responsibility, and kindness. I began babysitting when I was just 13 years old, around the time my youngest sister was born, and I have loved caring for children ever since. Being an older sister has given me years of hands-on experience with children of different ages, personalities, and needs. From helping with everyday routines and keeping younger siblings entertained to learning how to be patient, understanding, and responsible, I have gained valuable skills that I carry with me into every childcare opportunity. I understand that every child is different, and I believe that creating a safe, positive, and welcoming environment is one of the most important parts of being a great babysitter.I absolutely love fun and imaginative activities that keep kids engaged, whether that means doing arts and crafts, painting, coloring, making homemade projects, playing games, or spending time outdoors. I enjoy encouraging children to use their imaginations, try new things, and have fun while also making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and supported. Along with my personal babysitting experience, I have also had the opportunity to work at a preschool for three consecutive years. This experience has taught me so much about working with young children in a structured environment, communicating with them effectively, helping with activities, and understanding the importance of consistency, encouragement, and patience. Working at a preschool has strengthened my passion for childcare and has helped me become more confident, attentive, and adaptable when caring for children. In addition to my preschool experience, I also volunteer in the childcare ministry at my church, where I have continued to develop my skills and build meaningful connections with children and families. Along with babysitting, I'm also happy to help with any household duties you might need and love working with dogs! Thank you so much for considering me!💞
